D.R. (Dinner Report) and *bonus ski preview!*

Telemark Dave
So last night, being without spouse (girl w-end shopping...), and, knowing that
S.B.R. was part way through a 2-week batchelor stint (Jenny in Cuba), and, most
importantly, having acquired a new quiver addition, I invited him over for dinner.

We enjoyed some nice Malbec - the original from Cahors, France....

and chowed on Jerk Chicken and Caribbean rice and peas.



Mostly, we stared at these...though S.B.R. will deny it.



Elan Boomerangs....140/120/130, 190cm.
They have nice shovel rocker.....



For comparison, here they are next to S.B.R's namesake Sickbirds (I own a pair too, but defer the rider status to you know who...)



S.B.R concluded that they look very "slarvey".
Who knew?

I can't wait to slarve some pow with them.

T.D.

Forgot to include the pic of the wine.....


It was definitely not slarvey!

I think mostly we were staring at them because we were trying to figure out what those wacky Slovenians had been smoking when they came up with the graphics. Where is Glen Plake when you need him?

Until I saw that picture,  I thought the Sickies were rather sedately sidecutted (is that a word?). Beside the Boomerangs, they are positively curvaceous.
